Virtual Seminar Series

AREUEA is pleased to present its Virtual Seminar Series. This series provides an additional platform for exchanging ideas and disseminating research in real estate and urban economics. The Virtual Seminar Series allows AREUEA members to present rigorous and engaging research to an audience of both AREUEA members and non-members from around the world.

Submission

We invite submissions on a wide range of real estate and urban economics topics, including but not limited to: Real estate economics, Urban and regional economics, Real estate finance, Public policy and housing markets, Macroeconomic intersections with real estate. Call for paper will be distributed every spring and fall.  

Selection

The organizing committee will choose papers based on 1) quality of the work; 2) stage of the paper (e.g., giving priority to papers that are being refined for submission to a journal); and 3) timeliness of the topic. The committee may also solicit presentations of relevant topics.

Format

A 60-minute Zoom conference, which comprises a 45-minute presentation followed by moderated Q&A. Participants can also ask clarifying questions through the moderator during the presentation.

Participation

Anyone who registers can participate at no cost. Registered participants will receive a notification and a reminder before the seminar.  If you would like to be added to the Virtual Seminar Series email distribution list, please email Eunjee Kwon (eunjee.econ.job@gmail.com).

Schedule

AREUEA members please watch for a registration invitation that will be sent 1-2 weeks before each seminar. We encourage you to forward the registration email to non-members for them to register and attend the seminar series.
